Chapter 255 - Traversing the Myriad Worlds (2/2)
In an instant, utilizing the Law of Deception that she had control over thanks to the Greater Law of Reincarnation, Haihana's appearance, which was an exact copy of Kurohana's appearance, had transformed into that of an oriental beauty which would definitely make a few people's heads turn around, but not to the point that people would wage war just to have her speak to them. Coupled with a red robe that looked majestic as her hair was tied into a ponytail, Haihana currently looked like a native of this world.
Then again, the intent behind her eyes was something she could not hide with the Law of Deception, deciding to make sure that she would avoid making eye contact with people she passed by...lest she wanted them to be petrified for eternity.
Fwoosh!
A few seconds later, utilizing the power she had, she then headed towards a certain place in mind. This place was one of the organizations nearby that ruled over a great amount of territory, which she was informed about through searching the souls of those lecherous people from before. As she made her way towards this organization, she could not help but mutter, ”The Myriad Sword Sect…I wonder if the amount of control I have over the Law of Deception would be enough for them to consider me as their elder?”
And so, after about an hour of traversing or so, she had arrived in front of the gates of the organization that was named the Myriad Sword Sect, alerting the guards that presided over the gates. But just as these guards were about to alert the higher ranking personnel of the organization, Haihana utilized the Law of Deception to make them believe that she was an elder of their organization. Unsurprisingly, with the great difference in strength, she was allowed to enter the sect within a matter of a few seconds, utilizing the Law of Deception on every member that she met.
Gradually, the memory that Haihana was a part of the Myriad Sword Sect soon spread throughout the organization, with the leader of the sect being tricked into believing that she was an elder as well. After making sure that every person in the sect was fed with the memory that Haihana was an elder of the sect, she then told the leader of the organization that she was going to go on a trip to expand her horizons, which was hastily accepted by the leader after manipulating her with the Law of Deception.
With that, Haihana went ahead and traveled through multiple kingdoms and empires, basking herself in the ways of the natives in the world. The fighting style they used, the combat techniques they utilized, the power system they put effort into, all of this was gradually being hammered into Haihana. Of course, since she was a part of Kurohana's body, she knew the reason behind this order, sending the information she had obtained to both Shirohana and Kurohana from time to time.
Eventually, a year had passed since Haihana had arrived in this world, disguising herself as multiple people with multiple jobs, allowing her original body to get a better understanding of the Greater Law of Reincarnation. While she was inside a small town, disguised as an old beggar that would do work for money, her acute senses instantly locked onto the aura of a certain entity, an entity that Haihana was not familiar with, but her original body.
Declining the offer of a charitable person all of a sudden, Haihana went ahead and utilized her senses to the limit to track the aura as she slowly walked. Of course, to others around her, it looked like she was walking in a staggered manner, but each step she took would actually traverse tens of meters, thinking that hundreds of meters in one step would be too much in this small town.
After a few minutes or so, Haihana finally got a closer look at the entity she had locked onto, rummaging through Kurohana's memories to find out who this entity was. Eventually, she finally recalled the entity she locked onto, muttering to herself, ”Ah! This was the entity Kurohana summoned to help Aurus in the war!”
With her acute sense of vision, she was able to see a mosquito the size of a spider zooming through the town, which was flying at a height wherein it could not be seen by the people of the town. Nevertheless, the difference in height was not enough for Haihana to stop her senses as she went ahead and sensed the aura that came out of the mosquito, concluding that the aura that radiated from the mosquito was no different from the being that helped Aurus in that war he had back then, albeit slightly stronger.
Thinking about what she could do to repay what the mosquito did, she shot a small strand of energy towards the mosquito as she made a finger gun, planting a mark on the mosquito wherein she would know wherever the mosquito may be.
Satisfied with what she had done, she decided that her trip to this town was now over, heading back to the Myriad Sword Sect that she considered as her temporary base in this world.
…
After arriving at the Myriad Sword Sect in the appearance she had for this world, she hastily went to where the leader was. Opening the door all of a sudden, the leader could not help but be fl.u.s.tered as she did not expect any visitors to come at this moment.
”Qing Hongxue, what are you doing here?” the leader asked Haihana, who decided to name herself Qing Hongxue so she would not appear any different from the natives. ”You do know that I'm not accepting any visitors at this time, right?”
”I apologize for intruding the leader's rest time, but this is urgent,” Haihana replied in a solemn tone as she respectfully bowed.
Hearing what she said, the leader asked her, ”Urgent? What do you mean? Did you foresee something while you were away?”
Other than deceiving everyone in the Myriad Sword Sect that she was an elder, she told the leader of the organization that she could foresee the future, which allowed the sect to escape a few calamities this past year. Of course, she was just utilizing a small portion of her control over the Greater Law of Reincarnation, which had something to do with fate.
”Indeed, I have,” Haihana replied to the leader's query. ”I have predicted that in the future, a person with great prowess over the Principle of Blood would come to this sect.”
Just as the leader was going to ask whether this person would be a bad omen to the sect, she continued, ”The Myriad Sword Sect should accept this person as this person would allow the sect to enter a new era of power, allowing it to stand on the same level as those other Grand-level sects.”
”Is that so?” the leader said with a tone of curiosity and expectation while her face was filled with excitement. Did you foresee the person's name by any chance?”
Surprisingly, a smirk crept up on Haihana's face as she responded in a teasing tone.
”Unfortunately, I do not~”
”And also, make sure that person is under my tutelage once they're accepted, okay~?”
